Probably the hardest thing I've ever physically done. I thought I was an "expert" at trail running but I had never even seen some of the things in this race. There were at least five solid miles of just straight up and straight down hill, and you had to even use ropes on both! Ropes on a downhill will freak you out, man! Wow. I was happy to finish. My running pace was 11:30, so that was good but those miles in the middle were brutal.
